Zhou Mengyuan, Dou Ya'er and Huang Xingjie rode together to the intersection of East and West Avenue, Dou Ya'er stopped, Zhou Mengyuan turned around, and beckoned her to follow.

Dou Ya'er turned a blind eye.

Without a solution, Zhou Mengyuan had no choice but to turn back to the past.

"Brother Yuan, the old monster is the secret place of our activities, is it appropriate for Sister Huang Xing to go? Dou Ya'er said with a heavy heart.

"It's going to be fine, I know her. Let's go. ”

······

Along the way, there were few words between the three of them.

When I went to the residence of the old monster of Qiaoshan, I saw a few black steamed buns on a cloth at the door, incense and candles were burning next to it, the door was open, facing the outside, and the old monster of Qiaoshan was kneeling behind the threshold, and there was a cowhide wine bag lying next to him, and the mouth of the wine bag was open, probably empty.

Seeing this, the three of them suddenly understood everything in their hearts, and their hearts became sour at the same time.

"Master!"

"Monster!"

Zhou Mengyuan and Dou Ya'er hurriedly dismounted.

"Hey, hey... What are you doing here for the Chinese New Year? Go back and let the old man be quiet alone. ”

"You've drunk too much. Hurry up, Xiao Ya'er will help you to the kang. Dou Ya'er stepped forward to help.

"Master, get up, we've got you something to eat. ”

The old monster of Qiao Shan stared at Huang Xingjie on horseback in front of him.

Huang Xingjie was dressed in green clothes, with a hairband on her head, and her waterfall-like red hair covered half of her cheeks, looking at the old monster in a daze.

The drunken eyes of the faint flower found that the yin qi on Huang Xingjie's body was extraordinary, and the old monster took a look, only to see that Huang Xingjie had three heads with different face shapes, six arms, and three women's bodies with different colors and styles.

"Huh!"

"Little ghost, take your life!"

The old monster of Qiao Shan flicked up and flew straight over, and the eagle claws grabbed Huang Xingjie's hair.

"Poof!"

Huang Xingjie took off on the ground on horseback, and her body spun and split like a top. The long red hair, like a small red umbrella, swirls in the air, and is very eye-catching with green clothes.

The horse neighed and ran to the big green horse.

The old monster refused to give up and chased after him.

Huang Xingjie quickly escaped, and luckily avoided the eagle talon again and again.

"Xiao Ya'er, the master has misunderstood, please stop him together. ”

"Okay! Listen to Brother Yuan. ”

"Master, stop! I will make a decision when I understand it. ”

Zhou Mengyuan and Dou Ya'er flew over and stopped the old monster of Qiao Shan together.

"Who is she?"

"Master, I was careless and forgot to introduce it. Zhou Mengyuan turned his head and beckoned, "Sister Xing, come over and introduce you to my master." ”

"Don't dare to come over, your master is the incarnation of an eagle, how can I find my in-laws if I am disfigured?" Huang Xingjie mocked, she was not timid at all.

The old monster, who still hadn't gotten out of his thoughts, returned to the house and sat on the kang.

"Hehe! Master is teasing you, walking with us, he will not be rash. Come here. ”

Sister Huang Xing came over with her clothes and entered the house with Dou Ya'er.

Zhou Mengyuan introduced, "He is my master, wise and optimistic, and sometimes likes to make a little monster." ”

Sister Huang Xing bowed deeply, "Master is auspicious!"

"Needless to say, the old monster already knows her name. The old monster looked to the side, "Girl, do you know your physical condition?"

"Back to the master, the little woman knows, little... Zhou Mengyuan also knew that it was a ghost possession, and the two sisters-in-law of the same village who treated people very well. ”

Dou Ya'er was startled and watched Huang Xingjie retreat in surprise.

"Master, Sister Xing is a kind-hearted person. Zhou Mengyuan hurriedly explained, "In the early years, her mother was forced to death by Qi Hengxing's men, the house was burned, and the whole family died. Both deceased entrusted her to raise their children, the eldest was a girl and the younger was a boy, both healthy, Chinese New Year's Eve today, probably sent home for the New Year. Really?"

Zhou Mengyuan's gaze finally fell on Huang Xingjie's face.

"Yes. Entrusted by others, I dare not slack off. ”

"I'm so moved!" Dou Ya'er forgot about the "rival in love" for a while, and also forgot the fear of ghost possession, picked up Huang Xingjie's hand with both hands, looked sincere and admiring, and said, "Sister Xing, Xiao Ya'er admires you so much! You are definitely not a bad, scaring ghost possession, but, but a kind and great... That one. Hey. ”

"There's nothing taboo, Sister Xing is used to it, just call me 'ghost possessed', anyway, the villagers have accepted it. ”

"How much effort and suffering does that take! Sister Apricot, Xiao Ya'er admires you. ”

"No wonder the light skills are so good, it turned out to be a well-known disciple of Hu Guizi on the rivers and lakes, but unfortunately, the old monster only heard his name and never saw him. ”

"My master was alone in the second half of his life, paralyzed, lived a very pitiful life, and died a long time ago, when I was fourteen years old, I bought a reed mat and buried him. Sister Huang Xing cried, "I'm not just a ghost, I have the shadow of his old man in all my actions, for so many years, the image of my master has been with me, especially during the New Year's holidays, the image is more and more clear, better than my father." ”

Zhou Mengyuan wiped his tears, "Don't be sad, you are already very good." ”

Qiao Shan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly remembered something, and his buttocks moved towards the edge of the kang.

"Girl, the old monster found that your actions just now were very similar to a person, that is, the man in black who flew into the wooden box at the funeral of the Qi family. ”

Zhou Mengyuan recalled and nodded slightly.

Huang Xingjie paused and raised her head, "I won't tell you, that person is me." That day, I heard that the funeral of the Qi family was very large, the village was opened, and high-ranking officials and celebrity tycoons of the three religions and nine streams were invited, I wanted to wait for the opportunity to make trouble and embarrass them, and angry with them, when I was eating at the roadside shop, I felt that the boxes on the wheelbarrow pushed by the two people were not quite right..."

"Ahh Dou Ya'er smacked her tongue when she heard it, "I was wearing filial piety clothes that day, and we were all frightened at the time, and my uncle Qi was almost angry to death, and people's discussions were very bad." Good sister, the old monster is hypocritical and untruthful, the kung fu taught me is all fur, Xiao Ya'er worships you as a teacher now, eager to learn art from you, please accept the apprentice!"

Dou Ya'er was serious, knelt on one knee, and clasped her fists to salute.

The old monster glanced at him and snickered in his heart.

"How dare you! Between words, Sister Huang Xing glanced at Qiao Shan's old monster, and also felt funny, "Sister Kung Fu, half of it is herself, and the other half is the ghost body, and the combination of the two is different." Good sister, are you willing to be possessed by a ghost? Sister can travel through the search and introduce you to a more powerful one. ”

"Mom!" Dou Ya'er didn't help herself, and shook her hand again and again, "I'm scared to death! Don't worship anymore. I don't want to learn. It has nothing to do with me when the time comes. ”

Dou Ya'er failed to apprentice, but it enlivened the atmosphere.

"Master, please see, we have brought you so many delicious foods. Zhou Mengyuan went out, took a cloth bag from the horse, and opened it.

The old monster took a look, picked up a bun in his hand, and took a bite, "Vegetarian." Don't you have a big meat?"

Zhou Mengyuan smiled helplessly, "I don't know." Probably not. ”

Bean Sprouts said: "Old monster, if you want to know if there is any meat, it's very simple, just break it all." ”

The old monster gulped, "The old monster can't be so stupid. Vegetarian is also good, better than black steamed buns. ”

Zhou Mengyuan brought a large pile of chopping wood several times, piled it in the middle of the playground next to the crooked neck tree, and went back to the house to tell everyone that a bonfire would be burned tonight.

After Huang Xingjie refused, she said: "I can't accompany me, so I promised to Yanxia and Nuokang, and I will give them New Year's money tonight." Once promised, you can't change it, especially for children. ”

"Oh, Sister Xing said very much. I also have to give my grandmother money tonight, and I will be spared today, and I will be taught to spend more time with my grandmother in the future. ”

"You all send New Year's money, who should I send it to?" In the middle of the words, he took out a few copper coins and handed them to the old monster of Qiaoshan, "Old monster, Xiao Ya'er sent it to you, it is not a tribute, please smile." Wish, it's not strange to see the cute Qiaoshan old monster, blessed as the old turtle in the East China Sea, and the stinky rocks of Shoubi Nanshan. Take it!"

Shoot it at the old monster's nose.

"Zheng Zheng Zheng!"

The old monster raised his hand and circled in the air, and a few copper coins were concentrated in the palm of his hand, and he stretched out his fingers to take a look, "Just these few? You stingy doll, talk bigger than money. ”

"That's not even your turn. The road is slippery after the snow, and I have to go back through the main gate, which is the customs fee. ”

"Then what do you want to do with the old monster? I take it back, it won't be good if I get out of it. ”

"Don't worry. Xiao Ya'er has a trick that is better than money - put her face in front of the guard, smile slightly, and throw a wink, those seemingly majestic soldiers are stupid in an instant, and they can't stop them. ”

Dou Yaer's comparison of the image of sound and color made everyone laugh happily.

It's getting late.

Zhou Mengyuan proposed: "How about we light a bonfire now, play with our master for a while, and then disperse?"

"Good!"

"Let's get started. ”

Everyone readily agreed.

The bonfire was lit and crackled like firecrackers.

Old Monster Qiao Shan, Zhou Mengyuan, and Dou Ya'er stood around, talking and laughing loudly.

suddenly found that Huang Xingjie was standing far away.

Zhou Mengyuan hurried over, "Sister Xing, what's wrong?"

"No, no, no. Huang Xingjie shook her head, her red hair fluttered backwards, revealing her whole fair and handsome face, "Little girl! You know Sister Xing's situation, you can't get too close to the fire." ”

"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to, I just wanted to make my master happy, and I neglected you. ”

"Sister Ghost, have I ever been so stingy?" As soon as she raised her hand, Sister Huang Xing's finger poked Zhou Mengyuan's head, "Go and accompany your master and little sister." I'll be there later. ”

Dou Ya'er by the bonfire has been peeking from afar, and the jealousy and rejection that she forgot just now came back to life in an instant.

shouted: "Brother Yuan, it's cold over there, come over with Sister Xingzi to bake the fire together." ”

Sister Huang Xing pursed her lips and smiled, "It seems that if I don't leave, your little bud can't rest assured." ”

"Nothing. Little Bud has no heart and lungs, and is a child-like cute type. Hehe. When I say cuteness, I mean character, which is innocent and lively, not the kind between men and women. ”

After repeatedly calling back, Dou Ya'er simply came over, stood between Zhou Mengyuan and Huang Xingjie, took Huang Xing's hand and said, "Sister Xingzi, let's go to the bonfire and chat while roasting the fire, okay?"

Sister Huang Xing withdrew her hand, "Thank you, sister." No more talking. I'm a long way away, so I'm going back. ”

Dou Ya'er blinked, "Okay, I have to go back quickly, my uncle will send the New Year's money tonight, and I want to count the number of people." ”

The two girls said goodbye to Zhou Mengyuan and Qiao Shan at the same time, and the old monster urged the horse away.

At the entrance of the Qijia village on the East and West Avenue, the two broke up.

Dou Ya'er stopped for a long time, and watched Huang Xingjie go west, and her figure completely disappeared into the night.

At this time, the first wave of fireworks on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve in Qijia Village has begun to be set off.

The voice came, and the firelight had already stained Zhongtian red.

Dou Yaer hurriedly urged the horse back to the village.
